Panel Discussion: The Strategic IT Executive in 2018

Session topics include, but are not limited to:

How has your role evolved over the past few years? How has explosion of data impacted your role as strategic leader that drives business strategy and impacts not only efficiency but also revenue and competitive advantage?

Have you engaged in programs that can leverage analytics specifically to engage folks outside your organization? Your customers, prospects, supply or demand chain partners? Has it driven additional revenue or advantage?

What are some best practices that CIOs can utilize with regards to building an effective Data and Analytics strategy?

How is your team going about building a detailed road that aligns modern data warehousing, big data, and next generation analytics?

What are some of the most important factors and risks to consider when implementing new programs?

Which executive team members are you collaborating with most? How has this evolved over the past few years, and how do you foresee these relationships continuing to shift?

To transform our IT infrastructure into a world-class entity, the Department of Veterans Affairs’ (VA) Office of Information and Technology (OIT) plans to phase out its outdated legacy systems and transition to modern, cloud-based commercial off-the-shelf systems. One of the clearest indicators of this shift is VA’s Financial Management Business Transformation Program, which will see VA implement the new, cloud-based Integrated Financial and Acquisition Management System (iFAMS). Dr. Paul Tibbits, FMBT Program Executive Officer, discusses the Department’s modernization efforts and the ways a cloud-based system will bolster a sound financial management framework at VA.

Best practices and lessons learned for establishing this collaborative relationship

Partnering with different functions outside of IT to develop the skills of existing teams

Addressing training and development challenges for these new skills

Creating organizational changes around employee engagement to create long-term development of talent and align business objectives

Efforts impacting retention rate

Hiring differently with regards to the millennial generation

Organizations adapting to better accommodate millennials in terms of the tools that they expect
